2011年年底,中共中央十七届六中全会决定:进一步深化文化体制改革,使文化促进我们的文化建设大发展、大繁荣,这给我们创立了一个极好的机会,从物质文明建设到文化的大发展、大繁荣,这是一个极大的转折。要充份发挥文化的软实力,我们的新闻媒体在这方面是大有可为的。这些年,我们看到中外新闻社已经创出了品牌,创出了自己的风格。祝愿中外新闻社在当下文化大发展、大繁荣背景下能够乘势而上,发挥更大、更好的作用。为促进我们与各国间人民友好的交往做出更多的、新的贡献。
At the end of 2011, the sixth plenary session of the seventh session of the CPC Central Committee decided to further reform the cultural systems in China and actively promote culture development in the current growing economy. This provides great opportunities to us, yet a meaningful turning point from material civilization to cultural civilization. In order words, we need outstanding media channels, like Home and Abroad News Press, to help with this significant change.
